Description: | Pin from an annular brooch, made of cast copper alloy. The loop is now incomplete (fresh break). Both shaft and loop are square or rectangular in section and there is a long rectangular moulding at the top of the shaft. These mouldings commonly have grooved decoration, but this one is undecorated. The tip has a cutaway or worn curve on its underside, which would have allowed it to sit comfortably on the brooch frame. There are no tooling marks which might suggest that this curve is original; it is highly polished, which might suggest that it is due to wear. 45 mm long in total.
